Is Lukashenka Concerned About His Smuggling Income?

There was a meeting.

On August 5, Lukashenka convened a meeting on the production and sale of tobacco products, according to a Telegram channel close to the dictator's press service. In particular, participants discuss the changed market conditions.

A meeting on the production and sale of tobacco products is held at the Palace of Independence. Among others, Deputy Prime Minister for Agriculture Yuriy Shuleika and Chairman of the Hrodna Regional Executive Committee Uladzimir Karanik were invited.

Among the issues for discussion are how things are going with exports and what is happening with the domestic tobacco market.

"Lukashenka is discussing the issue of cigarette smuggling to the EU countries and the UK today. This activity annually brings tens of millions of dollars into the pocket of the Lukashenka family. Part of the funds are used to pay the enforcers," political analyst Dzmitry Balkunets commented on the meeting.
